"Veronica Mars. Modern college girl on the go."
"Dick Casablancas. Neolithic college boy on the sauce."

"The sauce" is a slang term for alcohol, specifically alcohol hard enough to get you drunk. "Hitting the sauce" means to drink heavily. Veronica, who always has the best comeback lines, zings Dick with this fine example of hard-bitten private-eye lingo.
